Relax. See my earlier comments about the QB situation. They will be 3-1 over the first 4 games as the weenie contests kick in. Davis should see time and probably become the starter . Coaches don't want to burn the red shirt year of Wells and if you think its bad now at QB, let me clue you-- it gets a whole lot worse with a true Frosh at QB who has no experience, limited skills ( been telling you that) and would "wilt" under fire. Fumbles, INTs and not made to take hits.
Next 3 games the QB are going to look "better".
Just an FYI...Ricky was moved to 3rd string the 2nd day of camp, August 2nd, where he remains. He receives no reps in practice and hasn't since the 2nd scrimmage (and those were with the 3rd string). So if he is called on, will he be up to speed? He has since ask to play special teams to help the team and was told no. He has been jumping in with the WR's, a position he has never played, and has looked pretty good. He will do whatever is ask of him. He loves his teammates, coaches, and his school.
Nobody knows what happened or why but Hunter Wells
is your next guy. It looks like that was the plan all along. As far as Ricky being inconsistent in practice, he has some work to do, but you have to remember, he ran the scout team last year, he never ran YSU's offense until spring ball and did a good job then. If you look at the 2nd scrimmage film this year, he was graded on only 6 plays while working with the 3rd string and nobody knew where to go or what to do. Of the 6 plays, every ball he did throw had to be thrown away because of a bad route or they were covered. As far as Hunters completions, all but 2 were behind the line of scrimmage (screens and dump passes) and his incompleted deep throws max out at 45 yards with no accuracy, so how he gives us the best chance to throw the ball this year is beyond me, but i would like to see it.
Regardless, love YSU Football and wish them the very best this year.
